Game Development Giant

Jester could clearly see his impulse from Fu Zan's eyes.

He was satisfied with this.

What he was most worried about was that Fu Zan had no interest in this game. In this case, even if he forced Fu Zan to go back to work on this game, it would be counterproductive and meaningless.

Because in such a state, it is impossible to make any reliable game.

If even the game developers feel that the games they make are boring and they don’t like them, how can anyone like such a game?

In fact, this is also a very big shortcoming of many domestic developers later.

These people are typical examples of people who went to school to learn stupidly. They are rationalistic and data-oriented. They think they design games based on survey data and never pay attention to whether they will like the games they design. They have forgotten one thing. Developing a game is a process of making art, not a product.

It's like painting a picture.

It takes a painter to integrate all his spirit into his paintings.

Otherwise, if you take a photo, it will be real and clear. At least you can probably draw it with 1080p precision without using human hands.

But can such a thing be called a painting?

Naturally it is impossible.

"I won't go into the details of how to do it. It's just an idea. I also believe in your ability." At the end of the meeting, Jester said this. This was not a lie, he was really right. Fu Zan's ability is very reassuring.

Especially in terms of innovating gameplay and improving games, his ability may be one of the best in Mars Entertainment.

From the original history, it can be seen that he has all the talents that a game designer should have, but it is a pity that he made "Smoke Mountain Tank" based on "City of Battle". He was not in the United States or Japan, and missed perhaps the most important era for him.

However, the current situation has been changed by Jester, and of course, Fu Zan's fate has also been changed.

After doing this, Jester felt more comfortable than ever before. Without his calculations, it was impossible for the Fairy Sword to achieve the same success as it had in history.

Although due to the extreme lack of Chinese RPG games.

As long as Daewoo develops this game and successfully sells it. Then this game will inevitably achieve a certain degree of success. There is no way around it. Although Jester can ban him on the console, he cannot have this ability on the extremely free development platform PC.

There is another thing that Jester has been thinking about for a long time recently and has not made his own decision.

Not that Jester was concerned about agreeing or disagreeing.

It’s a question of how to agree.

This cooperation is with Microsoft. Although Mars Entertainment does not have shares in Microsoft, Jester Investment, which Jester personally holds shares, holds a large number of Microsoft shares. Over the past few years, Jester has tried his best to buy it whenever he had the opportunity, and there were also times when he had strategic cooperation with Microsoft. Jester invested in it himself.

The visual operating system jointly developed with Microsoft, which is the product named Windows by Microsoft, has achieved a major breakthrough.

Now they have produced a trial version for internal testing. Received praise from almost everyone.

Everyone thought that this would solve the hardest thing about learning to use a computer.

After all, there is visual operation. There is no need to use programming to study how to make a computer operate normally. Users only need to move the mouse or keyboard casually to operate a computer skillfully.

This represents the advent of the popularization of PCs.

And how much business opportunities there are in this can be seen by any Microsoft engineer or non-engineering developer who can get a glimpse of it.

Not to mention Bill Gates, a genius. At this time, the thing he regrets most is the cooperation he agreed to with Jester. If it weren't for that cooperation, Jester would bear half of the development costs. Brand new The development progress of the win system will not be so fast, but the result is better than Bill Gates expected.

Moreover, after Bill Gates got the news, Jester also got the news in this regard.

"After all, my influence has not affected the windows matter. Otherwise, I will be very unlucky." Such a thought flashed through Jester's heart.

Although Jester originally assumed half of the funds for the windows development project.

But he can only own 30% of the copyright of this system.

Deep in his memory, when Win95 was born, Bill Gates' original idea was to create a specialized multimedia platform. In order to promote the excellence of his Windows, he even forcibly The newly famous id Software cooperated with id Software to develop a game based on some of their unique features of win95.

Many people may not remember the id software clearly.

This is the original history. The game company founded by two geeks, John Carmack and John Romero, developed "Quake" and can be said to be the founders of FPS games.

However, in the history of this world or this time and space, John Carmack is currently living a happy life in Mars Entertainment. In addition, without the encouragement of others day and night, it is simply impossible to leave Mars Entertainment and create any games. company, naturally, ID Software will not exist.

As for Romero, Jester doesn't like this person.

Because he was born with the look of a villain and a bone in the back of his head, he must be an unfed wolf. Although he had come to Mars Entertainment for an interview before and performed very well and had exceptional personal abilities, he was still given the thumbs up by Jester. Brush it down.

The interviewer who interviewed him was very reluctant.

After all, no matter from which aspect, John Romero's ability is enough to gain a foothold in Mars Entertainment.

However, Jester denied it if he denied it. As an interviewer, he could not reject his boss's opinion. After all, in terms of personnel rights, Jester had never planned or even possible to share power, and Luo Mei Luo was very angry after being rejected. In anger, he joined Activision, and he really helped Activision make several excellent games.

Let Activision's current reputation be on par with Sierra and EA.

But, alas, just as Jester expected, John Romero, just like him in the original history, attracted an ace programmer from Activision and left Activision, who treated him extremely well. Started his own game company. (To be continued...)
